I have recently read a book called Into The Ashes by Michael Morpurgo.
It is based in Gloushire on a farm I dont want to say too much in case I ruin the book for you. It is a short book but brillant. It is based on the out break of foot and mouth disease.
The story is told by a little girl who lives on a farm when the foot and mouth disease starts out miles away...
I chose this book one because it was the only Michael Morpurgo book left and second because I like Michael Morpurgo books because I think they are brillant and I really think you should try it.
I have recently read a book called cool by micheal morpurgo.
The book is about a boy who gets knocked down and is in hospital in a comma and he can hear what everyone is saying. Then he meets a woman called tracy and she is his nurse and there is another docter called docter smellybreath. Then his mum and dad get his dog lucky and he starts licking him and he wakes up.
I think you should read this book because it is very exciting and intresting.

I have read a book called Toro Toro! by Michcael Morpurgo.
The story is about a boy named Antonito who lives in a bull farm in spain. Antonito helps to raise a bull which is called Paco but when he is told that Paco will have to face the bullring Antonito feels terrible because it means that Paco will be killed. Antonito tries to find a way to stop this from happening to Paco but will his plan work?
I chose this book because I like Michael Morpurgo because he is a great author and I hadn`t read this book. Toro Toro is a great book and it is worth reading.
I have recently read a book by Michael Morpugo. it is called Friend Or Foe. It is based in world war 2 and there are two boys who are evacuated to a farm. The boys are really good friends and get along with the farmer and his wife very well, almost like they were the farmers children. One night when they're left at home on thier own the boys see a German bomber crash out in the moor.
I chose this book because i've read lots of other Michael Morpurgo books and like the rest it was brilliant.
